I’m Shonna, owner of Growing and Graced, and I offer prenatal and postpartum support to families in the Hampton Roads area virtually by request. I specialize in Natural Births at home as well as in Hospitals. My passion for educating families on prenatal wellness, family planning, labor and delivery support, and postpartum healing stems from a seed God planted in me that he has watered and matured this seed. The result is Growing and Graced, and I am so grateful. I want to return our birth journey to the way the Father intended. Birth is a process of growth, surrender, and preparation, and with the proper support, you can have the successful pregnancy, labor, and birth you desire! Thank you for stopping by, and I would love to join your family as you embark on your season of transition!
